Use a 3rd Party FTP application, open the site and then download all of the content to a folder on
your HD, then open the folder in FP.

> Thanks JP, I have already tried this but FP repeatedly says I need to verify the location and try
again. I have tried it with all the file systems listed on the web download wizard, but the http
system is the only one that worked yet many files weren't found. I am not quite sure how to transfer
with FTP or if it would work with a Homestead built site. Could you explain the process? Do you know
what I am doing wrong? Thanks, Chris

Using http doesn't guarantee that all files gets found. Make sure to preserve the folder structure.

Homestead's sitebuilder) and my jpeg image files (optimized in Photoshop). I tried to download my
site from a copy on disc, but FP dispayed an error message saying it doesn't recognize the files. I
tried to download my site from the web and only some of my pages and files were downloaded and when
viewed they were a mess, with text navigation missalignment and X's in the image areas. I tried to
copy my site's page and image files saved on my hard drive, but FP would not do it, again displaying
the error message. I know my image files are jpegs and my page files are html, so why won't FP
recognize and copy them?
